Cite as Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 1640-01-03-.07
(1)
The graduate nursing loan must be repaid unless cancelled as described elsewhere in the-
se rules. Repayment will include the full amount of the graduate nursing loan received plus
accrued interest.
(2)
Repayment shall begin at the end of the grace period, or upon demand by TSAC, and shall
be in monthly installments over a period of no more than eight (8) years, provided that pay-
ments must be a minimum of one hundred dollars ($100) per month.
(3)
The graduate nursing loan and accrued interest may be prepaid in whole or part at any time
without penalty.
(4)
If the borrower of a graduate nursing loan is determined to have received the award based
on inaccurate application information, the full amount of the loan and accrued interest shall
become due immediately.
(5)
If the borrower fails to complete an enrollment period for any reason, the postsecondary
institution must determine if any of the graduate nursing loans should be returned to TSAC.
The postsecondary institution should use its own institutional refund policy to calculate the
refund amount. If the student withdraws after the refund period is over, the postsecondary
institution must follow the Return of Title IV guidelines, if applicable, to calculate any return of
the graduate nursing loan.
(6)
If a borrower issues a check, draft, or warrant, which is subsequently returned to TSAC for
reason of insufficient funds, a stop payment order by the issuer, or any other reason, the
payment to which these funds was applied shall be reversed on the borrower’s account and
interest shall continue to accrue from the date of the last valid payment. Additionally, TSAC
may charge a reasonable service fee for such a transaction.
